Tennessee football podcast: More on Jalen Hurd’s pending transfer and team injury updates

KNOXVILLE, Tenn. — Former Tennessee tailback Jalen Hurd has broken his silence on his pending transfer, confirming that the style of offense was indeed part of the reason he had been contemplating leaving the Vols for some time before finally pulling the trigger on Oct. 31.

Tennessee’s football team put the potential distraction behind them Saturday night, scoring a 55-0 homecoming win over Tennessee Tech at Neyland Stadium.

The victory was not without its costs, as safeties Even Berry and Micah Abernathy suffered injuries, forcing true freshman Nigel Warrior into significant action.
